Notice published on May 3 by Transportation Department

The US Transportation Department published a four page notice on May 3, according to the U.S. Government Publishing Office.

The notice is focused on Agency Information Collection Activities; Notice and Request for Comment; Consolidated Labeling Requirements for 49 CFR Part 541 and Procedures for Selecting Lines To Be Covered by the Theft Prevention Standard for 49 CFR Part 542.

The Department handles nearly all infrastructure crisscrossing the country. Downsizing the Federal Government, a project aimed at lowering taxes and boosting federal efficiency, said the Department should be privatized to save money, reduce congestion and spur innovation.

Notices are required documents detailing rules and regulations being proposed by each federal department. This allows the public to see what issues legislators and federal departments are focusing on.

Any person or organization can comment on the proposed rules. Departments and agencies must then address “significant issues raised in comments and discuss any changes made,” the Federal Register says.
